Additional leaf collection cycle to start on Nov. 27

Naperville’s Public Works department will start an extra curbside leaf collection on Monday, Nov. 27. City officials say the extra collection is warranted due to this year’s late falling leaves and current snow-free forecast.

Crews urge residents to bring all leaves to their front curb by 6 a.m. on Nov. 27. Public works will not use the online progress map during this collection cycle.

Leaf collection could end early if snowfall begins in Naperville. The city will provide another leaf collection for residents near North Central College on Saturday, Dec. 2.

For more information on the leaf collection program, visit the city’s website.
